After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

This action to defeat the Great Witch in the Anlin Plains was also Leah's stress response to Uriel's victory.

And now, it has become like this.

The noise was so loud that all the knights in the camp gathered together.

And Leia, under the watchful eyes of a group of subordinates, was beaten and killed after she took the initiative to provoke.

Even had a sword held to his neck.

For Leah, whose brain defect made her largely immune to verbal attacks, this was the ultimate insult.

"you you--"

His face turned red and he had nothing to say.

"Tsk, trash."

Uriel had an expression as if she had seen something dirty.

"Tell me, where is he?"

"……he?"

"Where is Aize? Is the rumor circulating in the Holy City that he's left the team true?!"

Leah was stunned for a moment, then asked doubtfully:

"Why are you asking him? He's a member of my team, what does it have to do with you!?"

Looking at her like this, Uriel felt more helpless than angry.

He shook his head and said:

"You really don't understand anything."

"Understand? Understand what!?"

Aize's actions are far from limited to the Goddess Blade team.

He also provided considerable support to other brave teams in private.

For example, when Uriel first came to this world and was panicked and confused, it was Aize who introduced her to the working conditions of this world and calmed her down.

Afterwards, all members of the Silver Star team arrived, and their subordinate knight order was also formed with the help of Aize.

Even before, the reason why Uriel was able to kill the vampire progenitor was thanks to Aize's intelligence.

But of course, Leah didn't know this.

She regarded other brave teams as competitors. If she knew what Aize had done, she would probably be so angry that she would tie him to a cross and burn him to death on the spot.

"Why...why does a loser like you have to be on the same team with him?"

Uriel said this with a look of dismay.

In fact, after learning about what happened to Aize in the team, she invited him to join her side more than once.

He even offered to give him the captaincy.

But they were all rejected by Aize.

Aize's reason for refusal was that although he had suffered a lot in the Goddess Blade, he could still ensure the normal operation of the Goddess Blade as a brave team.

If I leave, the team will be finished.

This is not a problem for one team, but will weaken the overall strength of humanity.

For Aize, who was eager to return home at the time, this was of course unacceptable.

but now……

Uriel clenched her fists, unable to tell whether it was regret, annoyance, or something else.

When Leah saw the other party's attitude, she naturally started to have doubts.

This woman came all this way just for that loser Aize?

What does that mean? It means they have been colluding for a long time!

No wonder my team's progress isn't as good as Silver Star's. It turns out there's a traitor inside! ?

She suddenly became energetic:

"What? You're a God-chosen Hero, you wouldn't come all this way just for that loser, right? Yeah, he's no longer in the team, not even a Hero..."

"Shut up."

It was a casual remark, but the murderous intent contained in it made the battle-hardened knights around him feel terrified.

"If I hear you call her trash again, I'll cut off your tongue with your beloved holy sword. Also, I'm not here just for him."

Uriel reached into her clothes and pulled out an exquisite scroll with the emblem of the Church of the Supreme God printed on it.

"This is a direct order from the highest levels of the church. Brave Leah, cancel the planned expedition immediately and lead all remaining subordinates back to the Holy City today."

Chapter 76 Can’t Be Trusted

Leah looked at the scroll in Uriel's hand in disbelief. The momentum she had just possessed vanished in an instant, and her voice began to tremble.

"...An order from the Church? Retreat?"

"What? Don't believe it? Look for yourself if you don't believe it!"

Uriel threw the scroll over with a look of disgust. After Leah took it and unfolded it, her expression deteriorated visibly.

The long-awaited reinforcements to the church did not arrive.

The recall order came first.

After reading it, Leah threw it to the ground and glared at Uriel in front of her, asking:

"What is this?! Did you do this? What did you say about me in church?!"

In response, Uriel sneered:

"Me? If it's because of something I said, it's not as simple as calling you back now. I'll beat you up and tie you up and send you back!"

"Tsk——"

Leia was speechless for a moment and could only put on a sour face.

In terms of status, the hero is a relatively special existence.

Unlike the nobility, there is no clear hierarchy.

Because of this characteristic of God's chosen ones, they are actually independent of the church organization and are only responsible to the God who summoned them, and are not so much controlled by the church.

So, theoretically, Leia has the option of disobeying orders.

In fact, Aize often disobeyed the orders of the church and even joined forces with some nobles to strengthen the church.

Because the achievements were so great, the church even had to praise them.

But Leah doesn't have that kind of courage.

She could ignore her teammates' words, but she couldn't completely ignore the church, which also represented the will of the gods.

Uriel was already getting impatient.

"Think about it yourself. I'm just a messenger anyway. It doesn't matter if you don't listen, don't believe, or don't go back. I'd rather say I strongly suggest you do this, so that next time I come, I can be a little more violent."

After saying that, the black-haired hero left without looking back.

Leia sat back in her seat in a daze.

Then--

Crack!!

I don't know if it's because Villian's curse is working stably, or if it was affected by the previous battle.

The moment Leia fell, the seat collapsed because it could not bear the weight of the armor.

Leah, who was still in a daze, fell flat on her face in front of everyone.

There were some sporadic sneers from the crowd, but most people held back in order to avoid becoming the target of anger later.

Of course, Leah was completely dazed and didn't even realize that she had fallen.

Just staring at the sky.

Having completed her mission, Uriel sighed and came to her horse, preparing to leave.

But he was stopped.

"please wait for a moment."

Turning around, he found that it was Rosaline, a fellow hero and member of the same team as Leah, who was looking at him with a smile.

Uriel frowned.

"Is there a problem?"

As for Leah, Uriel wanted to give her two swords.

But it was hard for her to say about Rosaline.

This brave man who always smiles and treats others gently is extremely popular both inside and outside the church, especially among the poor, and is almost impeccable.

But Uriel just found her creepy.

Don't know why.

Rosalyn smiled and bowed slightly:

"Don't be so hostile. I'm not Leah. I came to you to help you."

"help me?"

"Don't you want to know where Aize is?"

Uriel did want to know.

If she knew where he was, she would probably abandon her mission of delivering the message and rush over immediately to confirm the severity of his injuries and help him as much as possible.

"Do you know where he is!?"

Rosalyn smiled and nodded, then replied slowly:

"Yes, he is in Tafea now."

"Tafia? Is that the nearby border city of Tafia?!"

"Yes."

Uriel was extremely excited and wanted to rush over immediately.

But she instinctively sensed something was wrong and asked:

"...What are you planning?"

"Um?"

Rosalyn looked at her blankly, as if she didn't understand what he meant.

"You didn't help Aize when he was suffering in the team, and now you tell me this, what do you want to do!?"

Facing Uriel's questioning, Rosaline simply smiled calmly:

"You don't have to say it so harshly. I'm just worried about Xiao Ai's situation. Leah won't help him, so wouldn't it be great if you could help him?"

Uriel looked at Rosalyn.

There's nothing wrong with what he said, but I just feel like something's not right.

But it doesn’t matter anymore, Aize is more important.

"Thank you."

After saying this, Uriel mounted her horse and rushed towards Tafia at the fastest speed.

"You're welcome~"

Rosaline stayed where she was, smiling and gently stroking the staff in her hand.

"All lambs are worth saving, even you, Aize."
